Thank you very much.
I thoroughly understand the committee's position, which is somewhat hesitant to let my riding keep the same population density. However, there are very important points to highlight regarding what my colleague just said, such as the meaning of the green line on the slide. That's St‑Joseph Boulevard, which is at the heart of the riding. I propose that you let us keep at least some aspects of our heritage. I'm not talking about people, but about historical plaques set up to commemorate certain things like the Orleans Fruit Farm. It's been a family farm for many generations, it's always been there and it's the only farm in Orleans.
If the committee is not ready to let us at least keep the neighbourhood of Blackburn Hamlet and the Cardinal Creek Village within the community of Orleans, it should at least let us keep what represents us and what we are proud to share, such as the St‑Joseph Boulevard Corridor. I invite you, dear colleagues, to consider it. It's about green spaces, and not people. It's about a green belt.
